Tag: Yoyo Unboxing

You may recall that I have unboxed the original version of this HouLight UV light before. You can find that unboxing video by clicking here.

In the original video one of my criticisms about this light is there is no on and off switch. Essentially to turn it on and off you literally need to plug it in the outlet or unplug it. That effort becomes a bit inconvenient specially if you are using often.

This vesion 2 however is the new and improved version. HouLight took notice of complaint and improved the product by adding an on and off switch on the light. They reached out to me via messenger and asked if I can review the new and improved version and I agreed. If you are in the market for a black light, look no further than the HouLight High Power 20W Ultra Violet UV LED Flood Light. For yoyoing, it will make your strings look super cool and visible.

This yoyo has a generally large diameter and is not too wide and not too narrow. It has some nice stainless steal rims that have the Outlier later engraving and later I noticed that it had my Youtube initials on it “LYC”. I believe that Brandon puts the initials of the player that ordered it next to the Outlier engraving.

This yoyo is dead smooth on the first throw. In terms of playability this yoyo is actually phenomenal in all the styles I threw at it. It is light but the rims make it stable enough so that it can play all styles. The lightness and stability of the rims makes it excellent at speed and since it is wide it is very good for tech as well. The open catch zone makes whip and laceration tricks very easy and it also is awesome at horizontal tricks. All grinds are very good on this yoyo however the rough laser engravings in the faces makes it feel weird while doing finger spins but isn’t that much of a problem.

Overall this is an awesome throw and I highly recommend this yoyo to anyone that has $110 bucks in their pocket. Huge thanks to Brandon for sending me this throw and I hope you enjoy the one I sent you as well haha.

I so happy on how well received the TopYo x LorenzYoCubing Meta yo-yo have been from the Yo-yo community. In a period of just a few days, the Meta became sold out from YoyoBestBuy. But not to worry, other stores still have stock but am moving fairly quickly as the word is getting out. That is amazing and I am so thankful to you all for your continued support.

Here are the Yo-yo stores that are carrying the TopYo x LorenzYoCubing (LYC), signature Yo-Yo.

Here are some comments on a recent FaceBook Fan Page Post:

On Instagram here are what has been posted from yo-yoers recently purchased the Meta:

Out of the box this yoyo is dead smooth, although the finish on the yoyo has a very strong matted feel that has a similar effect as a glossy finish. It may stick to your sweaty fingers a little when it gets hot but very minimal.

This yoyo has excellent rim weight but is still light enough to do tricks that require a lot of movement. Since it has both the stableness of the rims and the light weight, this yoyo can handle any trick you throw at it!!!

It is light enough and has good rim weight for speed, but the rims can also have a good stable feel for tech. Plus the round shape is good for tricks like rejections. The catch zone is just perfect not too wide not too narrow for whip tricks like lacerations and meta, and also for horizontal. The bowl in the face of the yoyo is also pretty good for finger spins, the yoyo is also very good at normal grinds as well.

Overall this is a great bi-metal yoyo from MagicYoyo and I highly recommend it to anyone who has the money for it!!!

Thank you so much to MagicYoyo for sending this to me this throw is awesome!!!

In this video I unboxed the TopYo Raiser along with a sponsorship package!!!

First off, congrats to Eugene Joh for getting sponsored by TopYo!!! Welcome to the family brudda and I’m super happy for you, and for me too cause I’m not the only one in the U.S. anymore haha.

The yoyos I got in the package were new color ways of the rimmed silenus, impulse, and photon, along with the new TopYo Raiser.

The TopYo Raiser bi-metal is a very smooth yoyo. I noticed that it plays very fast and very light. The inner rims give it good rim weight so that the yoyo isn’t too floaty. the open shape allows the yoyo to handle techy tricks very well, it also allows it to play horizontal pretty nice as well.

Overall this is an all around bi-metal throw and I highly recommend it!!!

“Most Effective Tactic Available,” that is what the name means from today’s Urban Dictionary. The approach to the design is not far from the definition. I wanted the yoyo to be able to do speed, tech, finger spin and just about anything I throw at it. The result definitely will not disappoint.

In this video I unboxed the latest release from YoyoFreaks the SuperFreak Bi-metal Yoyo. The Yoyo will be released on Saturday, June 23, 2018. This is carried exclusively by YoyoBestBuy.

The unboxing was done in anticipation of the release of this yoyo. The video starts off with a friendly warning from yours truly. Let us keep this postive. The reason, well there was some yoyo drama flying around, that frankly, I do not care to entertain. We already have too many stresses in life and to have drama with the thing that most of us use to “destress” is not cool.

The YoyoFreaks SuperFreak is a smooth and powerful Yoyo. I measured the specs of the yoyo myself and came up with a weight of 66 g, Width of 45 mm and a diameter of 57 mm. The shape is an “H” shape yoyos which is a fairly popular and highly functional design shape. It has an embedded stainless steel ring in cup of the yoyo that makes a long powerful spins.

After playing with this yoyo for a while, I highly recommend it. The yoyo does it all. Oh did I mention it has a finger spin cup? Yes it is a little flat around the cup but once you get it in there, it is awesome.

The quality of the yoyo is superb. For a high quality bi-metal yoyo priced at $77, this is a “Steel!”

Even better, get this throw for $69 (an additional 10% off). Use coupon code “LorenzYo” at the check out 🙂

Check out this video, full of my zaniness, and super fun. Please like, share, comment and subscribe.!

The SF Cadence is a fun and awesome Yoyo. It is a monumental yoyo made of 7068 Aluminum. The texture is sand blasted smooth. The shape is a V shape that tapers nicely out to the rim. It has a solid feel and pretty much can do anything you throw at it.

I liked this yoyo a lot. The design is simply functional yet powerful. You can definitely spend hours getting lost in the flow of this awesome throw. The only issue you may run into is getting one. The cadence has been limited in its release and at the time of this video recording is out of stock. However, there is a restock drop on Yoyoexpert on the 7th of June. You can also visit the SF Yoyo website for more information.

The following video is the premier of my long awaited collaboratively designed signature yo-yo, the TopYo Meta, aka ///TOPYO//META\\LYC\\\. It has been a few months since the idea came and now it is finally here. But first why call it Meta? Check out the meaning below.

“Most Effective Tactic Available,” that is what the name means from today’s Urban Dictionary. The approach to the design is not far from the definition. I wanted the yoyo to be able to do speed, tech, finger spin and just about anything I throw at it. The result definitely will not disappoint.

Besides function, TopYo and I discussed the quality of the yo-yo. We wanted the it to be beautiful, like a piece of art. The surface has to be smooth. We wanted it to be glossy yet will not stick to your skin when playing. The Meta has a sand blasted feel, but has a finish similar to Yo-yo’s two to three times the price.

Speaking of price, we wanted to make sure that the yo-yo will provide value and hours and hours of fun and use. That means, lots of enjoyment without breaking the bank. The price as of release will be around $40.

The TopYo Meta is a solid design. It has a powerful feel while at play. This is due to the emphasis on the rim weight. That means, it will spin to your heart’s desire. To balance out the rim weight, a great deal of attention was dedicated to the shape and weight in the middle as well. In fact, thorough testing and tweaks were made from the conceptual design all the way to the various prototypes (Mark I, II and III).

The resulting production model, with all the hours and collaborative work with TopYo was definitely worth the wait. So without further a do, here is the TopYo x LorenzYoCubing (LYC) designed yo-yo the Meta. Please like, share, comment and subscribe.!
